I'm going to preface this by saying that some (maybe all) of what I'm going to suggest may already be implemented in this game further down the line (beyond level 32). But I would like to raise some asthetics that I have enjoyed in MMOs through the years that I found enhanced my enjoyment of the games. I have absolutely nothing negative to say thus far about this game and am looking forward to the headstart this Saturday. With this said, here are some suggestions:

Crafting: I hope recipes are available or perhaps later will be available to make costume pieces. I don't mind questing for such recipes. I did see where there are some pieces (masks, capes, etc.) that can be obtained through reputation points in the future. But it will add much to crafting to be able to make such pieces ourselves. As it currently stands, outside of alchemy...nothing seems to be relevant to make for yourself until you reach level 60. I found I outleveled anything I made within a couple hours of making it or found a better drop.

Titles: I'm sure they're there. Hope they are fun titles and not just "leutanent, centurian, etc."

Annual and Impromptu events: AKA special holiday questlines, events, instances, etc.

OMG... PETS!!!! Lots of pets you can purchase, find rare drops, special quests, etc.

Finally (I've seen threads about this before): Barbershops to change up your looks later in the game.

For example, I once played a game (which shall not be named) in which I head an undead lock with the title/name of "Chef Boyardead". He was dressed with chef's hat and white tux looking very much as you'd expect. He would bring the high end platters of buff foods into every instance to share with others, etc. I totally enjoyed that character, and believe it or not....I don't fancy myself to be a RP type of player.

Press V for titles that you have achieved.

Dang...Now I wanna get in game and check them out!

I like all of the things you suggested (although as stated titles are already there).

It would have been easier to say, "I want the game to be more like WOW."

I like the things you suggested as well, and as for titles, there are quite a few, and yes, a lot of them are fun ones. Considering I was running around with the title Dentist... I saw quite a few with Bacon Lover.

Pretty standard MMO Fare that he's asking for, it will not turn the game into WoW in any aspect aside from giving players some more stuff to do or customize with.

Let me add an addendum since people might think I was being negative. A lot of what he asked for would be things I would want as well. Barbershops, costumes, pets and the like.

NO, many MMOs have there features....Just left the Tortanic and they had all that social point stuff...Problem was, when I finally got the points to put the "dancer" outfit on my female companion, her body parts disappearred and she was a head floating over a bikina top with feet. Actually, that was the last straw for me...I was able to overlook the awful gear aesthetics for my toon, the terrible illum fps issues, and Huttball 95% of all battle ground ques...But to waste hours grinding social points for that was the last straw. I knew I was putting myself up for ridicule with my description of a toon from another game.

Crafting: While I'm not sure about there being costumes craftable. There probably are later on, most if not all the items I crafted so far can be used as templates for remodeling your armor. So if you craft you craft a weapon or armor you like the look of you can use that as the model instead of what you're currently/will wear.

Titles: yes press "V" for achievements and you can choose your title you wish to display. Also you can go through the achievements to see how to obtain certain titles you're looking for.
